Story introduction
In the summer when they were twenty-two years old, three girls in a quadruple room in a university dormitory stood at a fork in their lives.
Luo Liqiu, an ordinary girl from an ordinary family, chose the most difficult path - to start a business from scratch with her boyfriend Yang Chen in a big city. She started as a small clerk with a monthly salary of 3,500, and endured overtime, job hopping, starting a business, millions in debt, and her partner running away... Ten years later, she stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window of her company and watched the Qiantang River rushing by.
Qin Yao, a school belle-level beauty, chose what seemed to be the fastest path - marrying a second-generation rich man and becoming a rich wife. She thought that beauty was a passport, but she didn't expect that marriage was a transaction. After seven years of living in a wealthy family, what she gained was not happiness, but a prenuptial agreement, the result of leaving the house, and a face that she no longer dared to rely on anyone.
Chen Fei, a down-to-earth and good girl, chose the safest path - to return to her hometown to take the civil service examination and marry a husband in the same system. She thought stability was happiness, but she found herself like a frog in warm water as she repeated it day after day. It wasn't until she was thirty-five years old, when she planted her first rose in the small garden of her workplace, that she found her own light.
Three girls, three paths, ten years of ups and downs. When they got together again, they discovered that the answer in life is never "choosing the right one", but "taking the chosen path well."
